You begged me,

to fall in love with the
moon.

So I could get

accustomed to having all of
you,

but then, none
at all too..


*Sandoval

I would have

died a million
deaths.

Before I saw

our love take
its last two

breaths.


*Sandoval

But darling,

you eternalize
everything

good in this
world.

*Sandoval

You compared us,

to Paul Newman
and
Joanne Woodward.

But baby, you ran.
He stayed.

Tell me again,
how we're still the same..

*Sandoval

Upon seeing the dazzling eyes
I was transfixed for a while
Were they eyes or two cups of wine
That set ablaze with a killer smile

Do I call them eyes or two doors
Opened to the finest vintage wines
Or is it just part of my daydream
Where her beauty timidly shines

For one moment it all seems real
And in another, an imagination
A true interpretation of a lovable song
Her tresses spread like intoxication  

The statue of this Greek goddess
Full of youth and procreation beauty
Structured with a marble frame
She is known as Aphrodite...

Her lips kissing your neck, her hands caressing  your hair,

could not wake me from my slumber.

But your eyes looking into hers, the way you looked

into mine. Well that, I could not bare.  And so,

I woke from my nightmare. Only to realize,

that you were not there.


*Sandoval

And so that men

knew about gentlemanlieness.

The sun would bow to the moon every night,

and admire her beauty from afar.


*Sandoval

They tried to break me, but this

blood that runs in me, is made of ink.

And these unbreakable bones, are made of poetry.
